Another Update

I don't have any picture this time (well I do, but uploading them is a pain).  I will make sure to share the good ones when I'm home.

I've been doing good, if you are wondering.  Definitely getting a bit home sick.  Someone told me before that the first week I got here would be the hardest, I disagree.  It's getting more and more difficult as time passes, but I'm holding up. :)  The main thing that keeps me from enjoying France is the school, as I have told people before.  It takes a lot of getting used to.  Anyway, only two and a half weeks left of school (+two weeks of vacation! YAY!).

I've been enjoying my time with the family at home and stuff.  I've been sick once and had a migraine the other time and they definitely made me feel taken care of.  The weather has started to get really nice so we even played ping pong outside (with four of us, running around the table) and I had a lot of fun.  France is a really nice place to be, especially at this time.

I want to apologize for the crappy paragraph structure of this blog post as well.  I didn't really bother to keep one topic in a paragraph... so yeah...

Some non-France related things:
I've been using my Kindle for reading a lot.  It's definitely awesome to have free 3G anywhere (yes, even here in France) and be able to use it to browse and sample books whenever.  I've heard a few people say WiFi is everywhere, which I don't think is true.  While I do have WiFi at the house (this house in France, and my house at home), when walking or on a bus or in a building; a lot of the time there is no WiFi.  3G is great, but needs to get cheaper.  So anyway, reading on my Kindle is really nice, and the paper-like screen and long battery life make it even better.

Secondly, I can't wait for the Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 (inch screen).  It's coming in June (to the US, donno about Canada just yet) and hopefully if the price isn't ridiculous I can get it (just gotta make some money... hmm).
